How do you get those quick connects apart without destroying them?
I can't figure out how to change a cartridge without having to buy all new quick connects. |

just push the little circle end in (the part that juts out a bit onto the line). then pull out the line. - does that make sense ? -

Makes sense but I can't seem to get it to work. The claws on the inner piece don't come out of the line. I figure I must be missing something because every one I have tried to take apart breaks.

Again, much harder to do on pressurized lines. |

I'll make sure I get rid of the pressure before trying it next time.
Thanks |

That picture I think has me even more confused
![]() Drew - if your offer of help still stands I may call in the favour when you have time in the next week or two?

What type of unit is it, I just installed a 100 gpd, ro/di unit from aqua safe, but it included the three demin cylinders w/o the pressure cannister, maybe I can help. But the one big mistake I did make was not using a plastic to plastic thread dope, leaks from all threaded joints so had to redo, just a heads up.
